Alcohol Ink Workshop

Description:

Alcohol Ink is a highly-pigmented, fast drying medium that is used to create vivid, fluid abstract art. Various colored inks are mixed with Isopropyl alcohol to increase the fluidity of the ink and then applied to a non-porous paper. In this workshop explore the basic techniques behind alcohol ink artwork and then create multiple pieces of your own. The possibilities can only be limited by what you are willing to try. No prior experience is necessary. Material fee will be between $5-6 paid directly to the instructor with an option to have your artwork mounted onto cradleboard and finished with resin for an additional fee of $12-30 depending on size. Pickup will then be arranged for a later date.
